Original 1984 Mackintosh 128K Computer Appears On eBay

An original Mackintosh 128k M001, has turned up for sale in eBay, and it was first launched in 1984 with the famous ‘1984’ Mackintosh advert that was directed by Ridley Scott.

The Mackintosh 128K M001 is currently listed on eBay for $3,519.84 and it even comes with the original box as well as the manuals and software that came with it at launch.

Equipped with 128 KB RAM, 64 KB ROM, a 3.5″ 400 KB floppy drive, a 1-bit 512 x 342 pixel b&w monitor, a mouse, and a couple applications (MacWrite and MacPaint), the Macintosh was destined to change the face of computing forever – it not only created the Mac look and feel, it also inspired forthcoming versions of Microsoft Windows and several other windowing interfaces.

We suspect this may end up selling for a bit more that the $3,500 it is listed for at the moment, you can find out more details over at eBay.
